Great video! I am a former intermediate advanced sailor who use to use a 9'6" high performance glass board. I would like to get back into sailing. I sail Santa Barbara, and Ventura California. Ventura can blow a consistent 15 to 18 knots, Santa Barbara is usually lighter, and 10 to 15. I would like to get a Starboard Go, I weigh 210lbs and would like to get a board that will float me, but also be functional in higher winds. I water start and jibe, but would also like to be able to use the board to teach my son. What do you suggest?
@tushinghamsalesltd7 күн бұрын
Hi, either a Go or a Carve in one of the larger sizes would suit! The Carve offers more high end performance than the Go, yet still user friendly. The Go however, has the centre fin option which would be great to teach your son! Perhaps head down to your local Starboard Stockists to have a look at both boards to help decide which is best for you :)

I started windsurfing 25 years ago and at the time would read Peter's articles in great detail, again and again. Later I bought his VHS cassettes of Carve Clinic 1 and 2, Turn for the Better 1 and 2, even Show'n Off 1 and 2 - I still have them all. His explanation and knowledge certainly transferred through into my head and I cannot thank the man enough for what he did to my sailing in the formative years. Coming back to the video, this will certainly help many folks make that decision. What a legend he is. Looking forward to meeting him one day in Cape Town, I hope.

I'm tempted by the Futura, but can't decide which size. Im 70kg and mostly sail a 117 F2 Stoke on the Reservoir, with no bigger than 7m sail. I just want to be carried though the lulls a bit better and have more upwind performance. I used to sail on the sea loads with my 87ltr F2 Style, it's taken me a while (19 years, still not quite right ) to figure out what works in the pond - fresh water and inconsistent breeze can make sailing frustrating. In lower winds I switch to the wingfoil. (sorry!)

Hi, we would recommend getting the size that fits you best currently, as this will offer the most performance and impact protection from the vest. Hopefully within your local watersports community if you were to grow out of your vest then you could easily resell and invest in the size larger, later down the line. Regards, Tushingham Team

I go dinghy sailing, I tried windsurfing once on an 80's board which I brought for £10, but found it impossible and quickly gave up. I made the mistake of assuming that because I can sail that windsurfing would be easy. The Go Windsurf looks a lot more user friendly, especially the 175 or 186. Are they much more stable than the older style boards? I live next to a nice beach in Lowestoft and it seems a shame not to go for a blast.

Hey! on our channel we have a video on how to get into Windfoiling with Simon Bornhoft. This video should be able to answer a few of your set up queries! We've never found the need to adjust the tail wing angle on the Redwing however I'm sure that if you wanted to then some aftermarket shims could be made via a 3d printer etc. I'd recommend the 80 (145) for you as it's a fantastic allrounder.

Hi, thanks for the helpful review - I ride S1s, mainly in UK bump n jump, and I love the feel of the sails. I’ve recently bought a Pyro and find the guys on blade / pyro are sailing with more drive and upwind grip than me. Any tips on getting the best out of a S1 / Pyro combo for bump n jump? 👍🏻
@tushinghamsalesltd3 ай бұрын
Hi, Matt here. I personally use the S-1 and Pyro combo and love it. There is a difference in the performance of the S-1 vs Blade, both have different styles of sailing. The Blade might be more stable and have better upwind drive however the S-1 has more low end power and is much more manoeuvrable. Pro's and cons of each! I use the Pyro as a thruster, I found the larger rear fin offers more back foot drive for upwind - maybe this will help you.
@mph88733 ай бұрын
Thanks for the reply - coincidentally, I have also been riding the Pyro with a thruster and found it much better with the S1 - as you say, I guess it’s just tuning to the subtle differences between the Blade v S1 👍🏻

Hi Damien, thanks for the feedback. Apologies for the late reply, I've just seen your comment. I have very little experience with JP boards unfortunately, so I wouldn't be able to advice on any modifications to the board. The angle of the barrel bolts (through the mast) can be altered, however if it's the holes in the mast that don't line up for the bolts then the only way forward might be to speak to a JP specialist/board repairer who might be able to advise on a modification to drill through the foil box. Sorry I can't help much further!
